NFL.com Peppers/Patriots *possible* update

Recommended Posts

A second.......plus we don't have to pay 16.5 million dollars.

All of a sudden, we'd have a pooLOAD of money to spend.

Resign Kyle? No problem

Resign Goings? No problem

Sign Torry Holt? No problem

Sign all of our draft picks, including a new 2nd? No problem

...and for the record, put me down as the forum's NUMBER ONE fan of second round draft picks. I say they are generally the best deals for the money. You're still getting a top notch draftee, but at an exponentially lower salary than a first rounder.

So all those people (me included) that were saying that the Patriots sold Cassel and Vrabel too cheap to the Chiefs were really talking about the Panthers because the guy that wrote that article made it sound like the deal for Peppers has been in the works since before that trade was made.

I'm cool with it though... that 34th pick is still a high pick and we lose Pep's huge salary and can (hopefully) get a good player for a much lower salary than a first rounder.

    • I don't follow the NBA but I think that kid has a lot of upside. Really good athlete for his size. 
    • I truly don't see how they could be any worse than last season. Having a rookie head coach isn't always great but he seems to care much more than Frank ever did and appears to actually put forth effort while also having some sort of desire to improve so that in itself should help them exceed expectations.
    • I literally said in my other post that we still deserve criticism, so what are you talking about?  Do you even know what my initial post was about?  Never once did I say it was okay to draft a bust because other teams draft busts. Mods, feel free to put me in my place if I'm going too far.  But it needs to be said. Some of you need to start reading posts in full instead of making it about Bryce every single damn time.  Ultimately my point was that drafting QBs is hard, and if it wasn't the Panthers mistake, it would have been another teams.  Just like Trey Lance, just like Mac Jones, just like Blake Bortles, just like Blaine Gabbert,... I can go on and on.   Yes, Panthers screwed up (assuming Bryce doesn't improve).  Yes, we should be criticized.  But it happens.  The guy asked how it happens and I was just answering his question.  That teams miss on QBs every year, because getting a QB is hard and teams will take every opportunity they can to get one.  But I'm not about to sit and discuss this with someone who thinks Levis even had .001% chance of going ahead of Bryce.  That tells me all I need to know.  No reasonable person would even throw him in the discussion.
